Isaiah 9:1-7 Nevertheless the dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation… There is in this world mercifully a compensating balance to all Divine denunciations, a "nevertheless" to all God's judgments, and a Gospel of grace appended to every message of doom. It is this that makes this world, amid all its tragic scenes, a world of mercy. (D. Davies.)
